Hi all. The time has come to say bye to my much loved Pathfinder so she is on the for sale section. Full house and beautifully maintained.

not looking to buy as already have one, but was being nosy and took a look

I noticed in one of your pictures it looks like you have got a rear mounted cycle carrier with the camper attached?

We are getting near to the point where we will want to take bikes on holiday and it looked like there was enough room to fit 2 adult bikes on the rear of the car without it impeding turning (except for maybe the tightest onsite manouver) but did not know for sure.

Does it work out OK?

Hi Parky,
yeah the rack works very well even on lock to lock turns. You have to make sure that you get the bikes loaded right though and this takes a bit of experimenting. once sorted take a photo to remind you in the future. The rack is a Maxxrack with the extension which is the trick part when used in between car and trailer.

That's great information, I'll look into that. Good luck with the sale (at least this conversation kept it at the top of the forums for now :-) )

Thanks, after 7 years with the Pathfinder me and her have bought a new caravan. We have always loved the Pathfinder and still do but we feel it's time for a change. Our Pathfinder has every possible extra and everything is working as it should. Hopefully it will find a good home.

Those bike racks look great and get good reviews. Unfortunately I have a detachable swan neck so not sure that is going to work (they talk about having a swan neck solution that still enables you to tow, but no mention of detachable tow bars).

Have to see if I can get a normal rear mounted rack that still gives clearance from the camper.

I'm sure your camper will sell quickly, when we were looking at second hand models, the good ones were always gone before we got a look in, which is why we ended up getting a new one. And it was after a summer camping trip in our tent and seeing one in a campsite that made us want one, so good time of year.
